Freedom Fighters: The Ray tells the origin story of Ray Terrill (Russell Tovey), a man who reluctantly becomes a superhero after he is visited by his dying Earth-X doppelganger. As the light-powered superhero The Ray, Ray fights the Nazi villains of Earth-X, while building up the courage to come out as gay to his parents. The first six-episode season of The Ray debuted late last year.

Long before he sought the presidency in Washington, D.C., he was a college kid in New York faced with judgmental and racist opinions all around him. The movie follows him as he tries to find his place in the world.
